When you graduate from nursing school, you’re on the top of the world.
You conquered the endless clinicals, med quizzes, and exams… passed the NCLEX… and finally have your RN license in hand. Your confidence is sky-high. And then, you start your first job at the bedside, and it all comes crashing 📉 down.
People are asking you basic questions that put you on the spot, and suddenly information you knew at one time flies out of your brain and into the abyss 🌊 .
You have to perform skills in front of patients and families that you’ve only performed 1-2x before.
Physicians are entering order faster than you can blink.
Three people are on hold waiting to talk to you.
You are not sure which questions are reasonable and which make you look ridiculous. Suddenly, what seemed doable now feels impossible.
But, what if you didn’t have to feel like that? What if there was another way…
What if you could have experienced nurses who cared about your development, guiding you through orientation and beyond, to tell you all of the insider info in the comfort of your own home?
Introducing… the 🌿 FreshRN All-Access Pass.
A membership platform designed specifically to assist the newly licensed nurse transition from nursing school 🏫 to hospital nursing 🏥 so they can thrive in their new role.

I would 100% recommend it.
